hmmm…..
Today I woke up to a world covered with a light sprinkling of snow. For now it is beautiful to gaze at; it makes everything look clean and fresh. But soon, the school buses and cars will be out making dirty tracks on the roads and it will become a slushy mess -- at least here in town.
The best qualities of snow also cause us the most trouble; it covers everything making the world as white as… well … snow. Trouble is, it covers everything – even all of our pathways. Roads and sidewalks become slick ice rinks as the snow melts and re-freezes.
A friend of mine says that our best qualities are the ones that usually get us in the most trouble. Folks who always seems to know what’s going on, and will tell you about it, are also the town gossips. People who have the gift of gab usually talk too much. In my own case, I have a tendency to be a soft touch and usually give in when folks are in need. But that also makes me a sucker. So maybe our best qualities are the ones that get us in the most trouble.
What are your best qualities, and do they get you in trouble? Today might be a good day to kick back and examine what kind of trouble we get ourselves into ..... and let the melting snow wash it all away.
hmmm…..
